will 500 hp evo make passengers scream?

So I shot this video last week



I was wondering if my 500 hp fp black 2.0 build will be enough to do the same thing and "excite" passengers. We were talking about it on set and all the girls thought a ride in my evo sounded exciting. I'm not on e85, but the motor is fully built and has ported everything from tb, manifold, header, exh manifold, to the turbine housing. I haven't got it tuned yet, but I'm curious if it will pull hard enough to make a good video or if i should avoid it b/c after riding in that GTR they will think my **** is slow

Any other 500 hp FP black evos out there have some good stories of doing pulls and their passenger's reaction?


Thanks for the help!!!

it really depends on the girl. My sister has been around fast cars for years she is 18 now and goes in my 640whp Evo doesn't faze her at all. She likes it. So it really depends if the girl has ever been around fast cars.

Totally depends on what they are used to. My wife rides in my car and acts no different whether I do a wot pull vs just cruising. Shes used to it and trusts me. if you get someone that has no clue about cars and think their scion tc is fast, then you might get that reaction.

It's definitely possible. One time I had two girls in the back, and they screamed a lot. And my car only has bolt-ons. However, I'm pretty sure it was by far the fastest car they had ever ridden in.

The more girls the more screams... It's exponential that way.

I converted 2 Honda folks to the Diamond with my car and it was only 350HP. It really depends on the person.

I'm sure you will get a reaction but I would get your car tuned first to get the most out of it and then go scare the hell out of your passengers.

im at 375WHP and my wife hates my car, She gets on m the minute the car goes into boost.
however my kids love it. They call it the Whizzer, cause of the swoosh of the turbo.

I have 350hp to the wheels and I have scared people without even going into boost. If you had 500, it would be easy depending on the person.
